Introducing the Drag 'n' Drop Field Editor

[Skater]

Full text direct from TheArtofCricket.net:

Have you ever wondered what would happen if all nine fielders were in the slips? Have you ever wanted to put them all in close catching positions for the spinner? Well now you can, with the revolutionary Drag 'n' Drop field editor, just one of the extensive features of The Art of Cricket.

It can be tedious, clicking onto the Pause menu, clicking onto the Field Editor and choosing a preset field. That's why the Drag 'n' Drop Field Editor can be accessed "on the fly", so you never have to leave the action.

You can choose from a range of diverse preset fields, like two slips and a gully and a short third man and a deep fine leg, or create your own! Just move around the field, click on the player you want to move and drag him to his new position - it's as simple as that!

If a particular field placing works well, save it with a click of a button so you won't have to go through all the dragging and dropping more than once.

With the Drag 'n' Drop Field Editor, you can even move the wicket keeper close to the stumps, or as far back as the pitch mat - something that has never been seen before in a cricket game!

The Art of Cricket will really allow the player to live their cricketing dreams. Pad up. It's coming.

This really is an inventive inclusion into the game and it will enhance the way that you can change the field dramatically. By the looks of it as well, there are limitless positions for fielders. This is much much better than having preset options, well done guys

That is an extremely awesome feature there. Looks so cool cant wait to use it in the game.

That is a seriously great feature - very innovative in the world of cricket games.

Makes changing the field round a breeze and gives a large amount of flexibility.

correct, the positions are limitless. You will also be able to save any field you make as a selectable custom field

Quick question. If i move the keeper really far back to a spinner will he keep letting it go for byes and having to collect it or will a nearby fielder try to collect it. Same if i stand the keeper up to steve harmison will the keeper keep missing the ball and dropping it?

This is an amazing feature A good different idea which is absent in the previous cricket games.
